Anyone know where I can find a Z4M steering wheel? I looked on ebay but the only one I could find was a new one going for $1200

mfanatic325 · 02-23-2011, 01:36 AM

It's $1,035.66 + shipping from Tischer BMW (cheapest place to buy OEM stuff online)...
Part #: 32307836820

That's JUST the steering wheel body, excluding all the covers and buttons and airbag, etc.

mfanatic325 · 02-23-2011, 02:23 AM

WHOA! Scratch that! Found an even better deal!

Almost makes it seem "cheap" lol...until you come to your senses and realize you just spent $800+ on a steering wheel

The markup on this wheel is ridiculous at best...the fact you can buy the same exact wheel with black stitching for $300-$400 brand new shows that BMW is really gouging folks.

OP, if I were you I'd skip the colored stitching (which, after a while, gets dirty anyway) and order the same exact wheel with the black stitching.

I might let mine go for $600

You can find m wheels way cheaper than 800 especially if you don't want the m steering wheel tabs

I saw tri stiched M wheel for 157 (for just the wheel with no switches or trims).

did you not know the stitches add about 20 HP?

pingpong · 02-23-2011, 10:12 PM

I've been looking for a black thread wheel, but the cheapest I've found is still over $500.

Wow! That's a great price. So the only difference is stitch color? I could live with that.

Can you reuse your MF controls? Will it work with paddle shifters? I would think so.

kirkpart2 · 02-24-2011, 09:45 AM

paddle shifters work

..... here are some pics of them installed http://www.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=492725
